Broke and happy
During the panel, we did hear the word "grounded" quite a bit, as well as "raw" and "darker," all of which might put off fans a bit...but we also heard the words "emotional" and "character-driven" and many references to "family," all of which I have a hard time disdaining when we're discussing superhero films. Other quotes:
Director Josh Trank said he wanted to "show a side of the characters that I had never seen before, the more tragic side of the story." So, yeah, darker.
Jamie Bell on The Thing/Ben Grimm: "He's an everykid, like any kid in America. He's an outsider. He has only one friend in the world, which happens to be the genius Reed Richards...He's the muscle of the group, and I also think he's the heart of the group."
Toby Kebbell on Doctor Doom: "He's the best villain of all time in any comic book ever...He's driven by ego. Reed Richards is maybe a little bit better than him, so he must destroy him."
